They probably have the file hash wrong.

Could be the server being configured wrong, or with a slightly different Islands map.

Negative sir, most players don't have this problem and only the maps that we don't currently have are being downloaded. This is definetly a bug.

It's not happening with me :/ Works perfectly fine, how it should. Never had to download a map that I have already had.

It is possible that it downloads a map once even if you had it installed as a .mix, because TT stores them differently. However, it should never download islands if properly configured.

My guess is that it is downloading a different package, especially on islands. The downloader shows the current map, but it does not show exactly what files it is downloading. It is possible that it downloads an additional package, for example a sound pack. Maybe a st0rm admin can post their configuration to see what's happening?

That's pretty liikely actually, because in the default config the soundpackage "quake" is specified with every map. I'm not sure why it's there, but it would cause this problem then.

Im sure server owner used PackageEditor:
PackageEditor convert "data\C&C_Islands.mix"
PackageEditor install "C&C_Islands"

Same like I did it before. Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin

So its not bug but miss configuration.

I had this same problem where even default maps were being downloaded, I simply copied the maps I had in c:\westwood\renegade\data to C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\Renegade\Client\ .

Works fine now. I erased all the old copies of the multiplayer maps from my rene\data folder now too, still works.

Does that work on non-TT servers? I think it does not, and I suspect you can't join those anymore either.

Well at first I had no problem joining non-4.0 servers. But now that I tried again, your right- missing map. So just don't delete the old ones I suppose.

Also try removing them from C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\Renegade\Client\ again. It might have been a coincidence that it worked after you put those files there. I can't think of any explanation why it would help. Razz

The serverowner.

Players shouldn't have to contact the server owner. Many wouldn't even know how, the rest can't be bothered.
